Trivia[edit]
- On 22 March, 2022, Game Director Josh Davis and Executive Producer Amy Liu announced in a news post that key moments from Scarlet's War would be rereleased in five episodes throughout the year starting on 19 April with "Flame and Frost".[1] Davis went on to add that the Living World's return would render its few instances in the Icebrood Saga's Scrying Pool superfluous, and that they would be phased out as the new chapters were launched, but that all relevant achievements would still be available to complete in the story journal.[2]
- Flame and Frost is a composite re-release of what was originally 4 different releases, including, Flame and Frost: The Gathering Storm, Flame and Frost: The Razing and Flame and Frost: Retribution.
